arXiv:2505. 18231v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) inference is typically memory-intensive, especially when processing large batch sizes and long sequences, due to the large size of key-value (KV) cache.
arXiv:2606. 03458v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Test-time scaling is a powerful approach to obtain better reasoning in large language models, but it becomes memory-bottlenecked during long-horizon decoding, as the KV-cache grows.
arXiv:2607. 01065v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The deployment of Large Language Models (LLMs) with extended context windows is increasingly constrained by the linear growth of Key-Value (KV) cache memory.
arXiv:2608. 04074v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context LLM decoding reads the key-value (KV) cache at every step.
arXiv:2608. 14191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The key-value (KV) cache stores information from past tokens and is a major memory bottleneck in long-context inference.
arXiv:2410. 13056v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable success across a wide range of language tasks, but their deployment on edge devices remains challenging due to the substantial memory requirements imposed by their large parameter sizes.
arXiv:2605. 06675v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models cache all previously computed key-value (KV) pairs during generation, and this KV cache grows linearly with sequence length, making it a primary memory bottleneck for serving.
arXiv:2607. 16248v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context large language model inference relies on the KV cache to avoid redundant attention computation, but incurs high memory and bandwidth overheads.
arXiv:2605. 08692v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Post-training weight-only quantization to 4 bits is widely used to reduce the memory and compute costs of large language model inference.
arXiv:2606. 15652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: 4-bit quantization significantly reduces the memory footprint and accelerates the inference of large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2601. 07475v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The emergence of fine-grained numerical formats like NVFP4 presents new opportunities for efficient Large Language Model (LLM) inference.
arXiv:2607. 01831v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context inference is increasingly common in large language model (LLM) serving, driven by retrieval-augmented generation and agentic systems.
arXiv:2502. 00527v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The KV cache in large language models is a dominant factor in memory usage, limiting their broader applicability.
